Disk Cleaner can Speed Up Your Windows: How to Fix Problem

C and E drives are switched

I tried a clean install of Windows 7 while I had Vista on my laptop.
When all was said and done, My C Drive has 360 of 454 GB free while E Recovery has 4.48 of 11 Gb free.
Everything I install goes on the Recovery Drive, not to my C: Drive.
How do I switch
these? I can only do so much before it tells me that I am running out of memory.
